BRIEF MENTION,

Many of the legislators will arrive this
week and their presence will give to the
city slight shade Of the political hue with
which it will be flushed next Tuesday.
The numerous toboggan clubs of Bis
marck have not decided upon the styles of
uniforms and no carnival parade will be
made on the day of the meeting of the leg
islature. 80.
The first case of cerebro-spinal menin-
gifts known to this section of the country
was that which caused the death of Private
Armstrong, of Fort Lincoln. The body
was shipped east last Tuesday for burial.
One of the social events of the county,
thus far ignored by the TRIBUNE, was the
New Year dance at D. r. Holbrook's resi-
dence, near Menoken. Over fifty couples
were present, and number OF Bismarckers
were in attendance.
The question of who will be speaker of
the house, and who president of the cOun-
Gil, is now agtating the minds of the local
politicians, who are looking forward to a
winter of lively amusement and entertain
ment in the gallery of the capitol.
In speaking of the hotel accommodations
yesterday. the TRIBUNE failed to mention
ter condition, and where Proprietor Peter
son says between thirty and forty of the
Legislative visitors may be accommodated.
The number of candidates for places in
the legislature is increasing rapidly, and
unless the indications are unreliable, the
scramble next week will be one of the
most exciting in the history OF the terri
tory. Thus far the applications for clerk
ships, secretaryships and janitorships have
come from South Dakota. but it is expected
the north will heard from soon.
In an interview with prominent South
Dakota politician on Tuesdays west
bound train, it was learned that the Yank-
ton politicians are making a desperate ef-
fort to effect a combination to keep the
United States court at that place, but that
Mitchell was enjoying comfortable lead
in the race. This is one of the questions
upon which the fur will fly during the ses
sion.
The sensational and highly entertaining
Bishop romance which appeared in the
Dakota department of the Pioneer Press,
last Saturday, has been the chief topic of
conversation in Bismarck for several days,
and it is hoped that the author will follow
it up with the results of the prospective
meeting between the distinguished La
bouchere and the famous mind reader and
his bride.

Approval by Sparks.

The other day the TRIBUNE spoke Of
the omission of couple of important ques-
tions in the new land blank forms sent
out by Commissioner Sparks-discovered
by Land Register Rea-and now comes
word from the land commissioner that the
TRIBUNE's final proof blanks are correct
in every particular. This is important in
formation for settlers who want to prove
up without any trouble or delay hereafter.

A Capitol Wire.

The most commendable improvement
made at the capitol is that by the Western
Union Telegraph company, which has
placed an instrument in the building and is
now completing arrangements for the send
ing Of dispatches from the capitol during
the winter. An operator will be IN the

Rejoicing at Lincoln.

On Sunday afternoon at o'clock eight
pounds of dimpled happiness arrived at the
home of Post Trader Gooding, of Fort
Lincoln, in the form of pretty daughter.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gooding and the welcome
little miss are happy, and congratulations
are in order.

the Inconvenience Of travelling to the Main
street Office to send messages will be
avoided. This improvement will be espec-
tally favorable to the newspaper cores
p0ndents, whose extra work alone will
more than repay the company for the ex-
pense of the enterprise.

Died.

The infant daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Kihm died at 10 o'clock, Tuesday
evening. and was buried yesterday after
noon. The baby was but two weeks old,
and the parents have the sympathy of the
community in their bereavement.

The Only Way to Conquer Dyspepsia.

1t is perfectly preposterous to introduce
pepsin and other artificial solvents into the
stomach, in the expectation that they will as
sist digestion by acting on the food itself.
They will not. Nor is it possible thus to
overcome dyspepsia. The only way to con-
quer that disorder, and prevent the numerous
diseases and disabilities which it assuredly
provokes, is to renew. the activity of gastric
action by strengthening the stomach. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters eradicates the most
inveterate forms of indigestion by restoring
vitality to the alimentary organs, and those
which are tributary to them. The liver, the

tive effects of that standard tonic which DOS

BEAUTIFUL NORMANDY,
History of Frances S4ost Fertile and
Picturesque Province.


Picturesque Province.
Ancient Normandy occupied the
northwest part of France, bounded
north and west by the waters of the
English channel. It received the name
of Normandy in the tenth century from
the Mortimer who had occupied the
country Charles the Simple, King of
France, in 912 sanctioned their conquest
OF the province and gave their chief,
Rollo, the title of the Duke of Nor
mandy. The new duchy soon came to
be one OF the most prosperous PROV
inces of France. 1t was a level, fertile
country, producing grain, flax and fruit
in abundance, and an excellent breed
of horses. and with a number of bays
and rivers abounding in fish. These
characteristics it still possesses, and it
is to-day as it was eight hundred years
ago, one of the garden spots of France
The beautiful garden was often laid
waste, however, by the struggles of
rival countries to possess it. The son
OF Robert the Devil, the sixth successor
from the first Duke Rollo, became in
1866 the conqueror and first Norman
King of England. On his death, En-
gland and Normandy were separated,
Williams eldest son Robert taking the
latter country, and his second son,
William Rufus, the former. Henry T..
the next King of England, ruled over
both countries, but his daughter, Matil-
da, was only Duchess of Normandy.
Henry II. united the two again, and
the union lasted till the time of King
John, who was forced to forfeit Nor
mandy to france. 1t was twice held
again by the English, first under Ed
ward III. and again under Henry V.
and VI Charles VII, of France,
finally rescued the province, and from
his time it has been an integral part
of France. The title of Duke of Nor
mandy has since been occasionally
used, but the province was divided in
1870 into five departments, and is now
separately known only by the names of
those departments Toledo Blade.
